Description

1858 Double Eagle, MS60
Rare in Mint State

1858 $20 MS60 NGC. The 1858 has a relatively low mintage of 211,714 pieces, since California Gold Rush gold was by then mostly coined at the San Francisco Mint. The 1858 is challenging in Mint State, since few examples were recovered from the S.S. Republic. This well-struck, sun-gold double eagle has frosty motifs and semiprooflike fields. Marks are minimal for the MS60 level. Census: 7 in 60, 25 finer (3/25).(Registry values: N2998)
